PRESEASON Game Thread – Celtics @ Hornets, 7:00PM, Thurs, Oct. 19, 2023

This is the role I dream of for Jrue. Let the other four players cook. And he does everything else.

[bucknersrevenge]

JB shooting really good tonight. Had that monster poster dunk.

KP with a few eye popping plays.

Tatum playing like Tatum.

White making plays on both ends of the floor. LOved that block he had near the rim - plays like that, it's crazy to see those kind of plays from a guard - jeez, he protects the rim like a big.

Jrue not scoring a lot but playing like a very good glue guy.

The bench looked ok.

Queta got a shot to get minutes over Kornet..and Queta did decent in there..

At this point it would be an absolute shock to see Queta stay on a 2 way deal.

I wouldn't be shocked. He can still get into 45 games this year on the 2-way. Like it or not, Luke has earned Joe's trust. I think if it's not enough during the regular season, we make a move at the deadline for another big.

[Homerclease]

Starters should have the rest of the night off imo. What more can you ask for

[zoyathedestroya]

We're shooting subpar from three and yet lead by a gazillion points. How sweet it is to have DEFENSE, points off TOs, and interior scoring to fall back on.

[Scoonie]

Sit the starters and play Svi in the 2nd half.

Queta playing over Kornet tonight is telling. Kornet has been a liability all preseason and the coaching staff has to know it

Celtics Scorching.
Led by Jaylen Brown.

[Shak_Celts]

From the H1 box score: Jaylen 4-5 from 3, everybody else 3-20.

To the eye test: Are they just missing, or perhaps getting the ball with unfamiliar rhythm, or what? Or is Charlotte defending aggressively at the 3pt line at the cost of being soft inside?

Seems like we are rushing a little bit. They could be a lil more patient to get rhythm

Everyone is tossing them up quickly, i think that's the plan. joe: shoot IT!!

Fine by me. No sense in taking the chance that one of them gets hurt in the 2nd half of a meaningless preseason game when we're up by 20.

[KillahGhostface]

KP amazing
White amazing
Holiday amazing
Jaylen amazing, his jumper looks great.
Tatum amazing, seeing the floor at an ABSURD level.

[Hal14]

Sit the starters and play Svi in the 2nd half.

Maybe the hornets play by play guy will say "Oh Svi can you Svi?"

don't agree, I think they just want to give him big boy looks.

The two are intertwined. Queta has looked the goods and Kornet hasn’t. Door is wide open for Queta to take Kornets job imo

Queta can actually play 50 Games.
But Agreed. Kornet is ahead of him, in the Rotation.

Queta fouls way too much, as of now.
Keep him on the Two-Way, this year. Start his NBA Season, next year.

[zoyathedestroya]

Game so easy for these guys. I'm ready for them to play the big boys. Where 'waukee and Heat at?

[zoyathedestroya]

Dumb TOs from DWhite.

[Shak_Celts]

dang we had em

[zoyathedestroya]

Starters are done. Playing like they want to sit rest of the game out.

[Celts17Pride]

It’s a pickup game right now

[Parliament10]

Holiday and White Backcourt. = Lethal.
Holiday already has 5 All-Defensive Teams. White has 1, too.
